Taiwan is tightening exam rules after two confirmed cases involving AI smart glasses this year, including one caught during the July subject test with the help of a metal detector. Under rules approved by the College Entrance Examination Center, smart glasses will be listed separately from other wearable devices starting in the 116 academic year. Bringing or wearing them in the exam room will count as cheating, resulting in a zero for that subject, while serious cases may lead to cancellation of all scores. The issue is not limited to Taiwan. The source article says a pair of AI glasses scored 96 points in 18 minutes on a mock version of South Korea’s college entrance exam, and CNN reported in June that confirmed cases had appeared in South Korea, Taiwan, and China. As these devices resemble ordinary glasses and can scan questions, send images to a large language model, and display answers inside the lens, exam authorities are shifting from visual invigilation alone to metal detectors, signal blockers, and stricter entry rules.
